(Alice) Everyday Use is one of her famous and grand short stories in which she addresses

“Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why” (Vonnegut 76-77). There are notable depictions of a sense of entrapment among protagonists in works such as Alice Munro’s Dimension and Train. In these short stories, the central characters, Doree and Jackson suffer from a sensation of feeling trapped, due to their life experiences, which ultimately leads them becoming motivated to go onto the next chapter of their lives. There are overlapping themes and writing styles in each story

quite the commodious view. At the bottom of the steps, awaited my small and younger cousin Alice, who I noticed was wearing a raggy, castoff dress, not tailored to her tiny frame. She returned my question with disgustful countenance, and after waiting patiently for a reply, in which I received none, she flounced to the kitchen.

The film Alice in Wonderland (1951)- Disney's animated adaptation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is the most well known. The story is mainly for children. Disney combined scenes from both ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ and ‘Through the Looking Glass’ for the storyline, and characters like the Griffin, the Mock Turtle, the Duchess, the Jabberwock and Humpty Dumpty, were left out.

Sunday Night How Alice made it through the madness of Wonderland is something I’ll never understand. My Sunday had already been a topsy-turvy nightmare since the moment I woke up: Texts from people who had no business having my number, a family emergency that called me away from my lover, and the desperate need of an actual shower--morning sex is good and all but not when you’ve left your honey lavender body wash at home. So when the red and blue swirl of cop lights blinded me through my rearview

My aunt and I wait in line for our turn to go in the Haunted Screamers. My aunt is brave and she looks excited. Meanwhile, I’m scared, not quite sure what to expect, based on other’s opinions. It’s our turn to go in, we slowly walk our way inside. It starts off with skeletons and blood, so far not that scary. As we walk further in, it becomes pitch black and misty, we’re unable to see anything. I am holding my aunt’s sweater as tightly as I can. There goes the jumpscare, my aunt jumps, screaming
